Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is wiping over a cast based on the analogy of those who wear leather socks?
Answer:
This is the basis, meaning: it is even more warranted, supported by the practice of some of the Companions, such as Ibn 'Umar. The hadith is weak, but if it is supported by a principle or by the practice of the Companions, it falls under the category of hasan li-ghayrihi (good for other reasons).
Q: So, it would be a stronger analogy?
A: Yes.
Q: If it is supported by a principle or by the practice of Ibn 'Umar?
A: First, what is supported by the practice of Ibn 'Umar falls under the category of hasan li-ghayrihi (good for other reasons). Second, from the perspective that the hadiths regarding wiping over leather socks indicate this by even stronger reasoning.
